All the nutty richness, the bold scale and creaminess we associate with Meursault from this 1er Cru site, but married to lovely apple-pear freshness that animates the generous body through the long, compact, yet very...

Intense and tightly wound, this red is firmly structured and energetic, featuring cherry, strawberry, stone and spice flavors, with the acidity and tannins lending support for future evolution. All the components are...

A rich and powerful Chassagne-Montrachet with some pineapple character, due to the very ripe vintage, next to the citrus that we expect. Built on quite an imposing scale, but with lovely lemon-zest freshness and fine...

(90-92 points) The 2020 Meursault Les Perrieres ler Cru is more hesitant on the nose compared to the Meursault-Charmes, touches of wax resin and crushed stone, a little jasmine, quite tight on the finish. Like others I am...

(94-97 points) Dense purple, some energy, not quite come together yet. This has broad shoulders, the structure I expect of Jadot Chapelle-Chambertin, from ancient vines still in great health. Excellent acidity, this keeps...

Rich and gamey nose, of the kind that gets real Burgundy freaks very excited. Iron, smoke and earth in its soul. With aeration it develops wonderful, super-ripe sour-cherry fruit. Then comes the massive structure of the...

(92-94 points) The 2020 Meursault Les Charmes ler Cru has a slightly reduced bouquet, but there is real intensity here and fine mineralite. The palate is well balanced and carries the reduction well, fine weight, quite...

Another notable success is the 2020 Fleurie Poncié, a medium to full-bodied, elegant and lively wine evocative of cherries, red berries and rose petals. Structurally refined and charming, it concludes with an expansive...

It may be from one of the least well-known of the Chablis 1er Cru sites, but this is a beautiful wine that combines creamy elegance with chalky and licorice character. Complex mouth-feel at the long, chalky finish that...

A picture of elegance and finesse, with cherry, strawberry, floral and stony mineral aromas and flavors, this red is charming and seamless enough to enjoy now, yet will improve with age. Fine-grained tannins and bright...

Lush, forward black cherry fruit and hints of rose petals. On the palate, there is a sucrosity typical of Charmes and less alcohol than in 2019. Despite its approachable nature, this is not lacking in structure and should...

(91 - 93 points) Notes of citrus zest, orange oil, white flowers and pear preface the 2020 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Garenne (Maison Louis Jadot), a medium to full-bodied, lively and complete wine with a fleshy core of...

(90 - 92 points) The 2020 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Embazées (Maison Louis Jadot) is turning out quite nicely, revealing aromas of citrus oil, pear, popcorn and vanilla pod. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and precise...

A firmly structured wine for this appellation, with the energy and freshness we expect from Savigny-Les-Beaune, Delicate citrus aromas and positive spice. Crisp minerality and acidity driving the long, precise finish...

A bright, well-defined red, this showcases cherry, raspberry and currant flavors shaded by earth and spice accents. Slim and fused to a taut structure, this is underlined by a ray of stony minerality. Overall, this has a...

Wonderful, nutty nose with delicate toasty, pear and candied-citrus notes. Plenty of substance and concentration, the mineral freshness lifting up the ample body and giving it tons of energy. Almost perfectly judged oak...

(90-92 points) 80% from L’Homme Mort and 20% Côte de Fontenay. Pale primrose. Lightly smoky on top of the usual welcoming soft fruit. Vibrant energetic fruit behind, thinking about a pyrazine, which keeps it fresh. There...

(90-92 points) The 2020 Chassagne-Montrachet La Grande Montagne ler Cru has a fresh and vibrant nose, clearly a level up from the Village Cru this year with more mineralite and tension. The palate is well balanced with a...

(97-99 p[oints) Pale lemon colour. Very little nose as yet, too early perhaps for a wine of this potential power – which it certainly has on the palate, and very good acidity as well. The immense square of fruit in the...

Smoky aromas reveal notes of just sliced apple, pear, acacia blossom and a hint of tangerine peel. The delicious medium-bodied flavors possess notably better mid-palate volume thanks to the abundance of sappy dry extract...
